Watermelon Juice

Its summer and as I told we just gulp in a lot of liquids to
manage the heat. Watermelon is one of my favourite fruits and during summer I
always stock up this fruit and eat as much as I can. This a simple juice recipe
with a twist. M too likes it.

Ingredients:

Watermelon-1 small melon (approx.1kg of flesh)

Chilled water -2 cups

Elaichi/Cardamom-2 pods

Sugar-3-5tbsp

How it Happened:

1. Chop the melon, slice the flesh and remove the seeds (as
much as you can!)

2. Add the flesh to the blender jar with the chilled water
and cardamom and sugar. Blend well.

3. Filter the juice through a strainer. If you are using the
juicer jar, you can skip this step.

4. Pour in the serving glass and serve chilled.

Notes:

1. Adding chilled water facilitates grinding and also helps
in getting the thin consistency. Else you can use ice cubes as well.

2. Straining helps in removing the Elaichi skin and other
seeds that were missed. If you blend well there won’t be much of a pulp left
behind.
